On April 9, 1945 (65 years ago today), Dietrich Bonhoeffer, German pastor and theologian, was executed at the Flossenburg concentration camp for daring to stand up to the evils of Hitler and the Nazis. His death came just three weeks prior to May 2, 1945, when the Germans surrendered in Berlin.
Thomas Nelson publishing has graciously agreed to sponsor a book giveaway to commemorate this anniversary. Thanks to their generosity, two of my readers will win a copy of Eric Metaxas’s new hardback biography, Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy. Metaxas is the New York Times bestselling author of Amazing Grace.
I received a review copy of this book through Thomas Nelson’s BookSneeze Program a couple of weeks ago, and I’ve enjoyed it more than any other that I have read this year (or last). But due to its size (591 pages), I don’t have a review to offer you yet. I can tell you that when I do post it, it will be positive. (Update: You can read my review here.)
To enter, just leave a comment on this post. I will draw two winners on May 2nd.
Please let others know about this giveaway.
Thanks again to the folks at Thomas Nelson for sponsoring this giveaway. And thanks for reading.
Update: The winners have been selected and notified.
